Depends on if you're talking open market prices, or marginal prices while farming, where you're putting in time and participation in place of shards.
Well, yeah. We're not trading in futures.
Then we start raising our bid as chunks become more and more valuable to us, and we have more shards...
OK, going back to reviewing the chunk bidding/valuation issue. I think I've settled it in my own head.
Basically, the shard cap for the chunk is how much we're willing to give up in order to get a B skill/job.
We can put the bare minimum value at 10 shards — the cost of D to C. Going...
Your math is off. He asserted 200 shards each over the three days it might take to get a chunk, so 70 per day, which is in line with our current gain of 35 shards in half a day.
I wasn't sure what to put there, but it's all of our current inventory of shards (not counting the current pool), so...
It was half-joke, but... yeah. Gonna vote for what Yuuka would do, rather than a guild accountant. Making some extra tweaks to the last line, though.
[X] Greatsword: I can't use it, or get any skill for it, and I don't think anyone else can either. Just sell for shards later?
[X] Ring: Ya'll...
Valuable for fighting the end boss, not in general use. End boss room is supposed to have a lich and a death knight, both of whom are almost certainly going to be using necrotic magic, and a have a reasonable chance of using lightning magic.
Given that we're currently at +0 for magic defense...
Hm. B-tier Adamant Body is incredibly tempting (and easy enough to get; 15 shards + 1 chunk). I wouldn't consider Warrior's Challenge as much of a draw. Adamant Body also doesn't have any real competition with other skills, not the way the weapons compete, so it wouldn't feel like a 'waste'...
Ring is a toss-up for the three mages. I'd guess a priority of Lona > Du > Linnea (since Linnea already got a talisman last time), though it depends on exactly how Du's power works.
Cloak is fairly useful for us, given our limited magical defenses, and that this entire floor is basically...

Given the spooky nature of the door, it seems likely to have a strong magic-type threat, which is currently our weak point.
Edit: Actually...
Woops. Did I copy the wrong sentence and go into trance your/you're corrections?
Oh, right.. that was it. The actual correction was "but" -> "up", and I just kept doing your/you're because of the other sentences.
A few quick corrections:
(Didn't bother with comma corrections this time.)
Hmm. Word selection algorithm changed. It now includes the space following the word. Annoying.
Anyway, I have no specific preference, so the iron door is as good as any direction.

Oh? How do you figure?
Murdan is explicitly noted as not having any healing (yet). Given Du's description of an equipment modifier, I don't see how he can be considered a healer of any sort. He might be able to boost the effectiveness of potions, perhaps. I'll grant Lona as a possibility...
Personally, I absolutely want Linnea on the final team. However, right now, there are a couple options where we can get away without a healer for the day, and I'd like to have time to spend with other character options.
For the twins, I don't expect them to be part of the final team. Their...
Agreed. Between Du's enhancements, and a bit of natural recovery, we should be pretty solid in survivability.
If we don't end up going with the twins, and we don't take Linnea, I'd probably want to keep a team of three rather than four, though. I'd likely go with Du and the magician...
As for who to take.. looks like everyone loves Linnea.
I'd very much like to see how Du's power works in practice. We know it affects equipment quality. And actually.. if he's managed to raise his skill up and can give +2 quality to Yuuka's armor, that'd bump her up to the "can't hurt me"...
Hmm.
New skills are all neat, and cheap to pick up, which is nice. I guess it would be 20 shards each to take them to rank C? (5 to buy at E, 5 for D, 10 for C) So 200 shards to cap all of them out at what we can do with shards (plus another 30 for our current D skills). Should at least be...

For the variant that leaves us with no money, we'd have a total of just 3 minor potions. Not what I'd consider noteworthy in value (total of 6 shards' worth).
It's my version (not the one the quote is referring to) that has us with 2 minor potions and a Berserker's potion overnight, and the...
